Trivia[]
- The name refers the quote by Carl von Clausewitz: "War is merely the continuation of policy by other means." Other versions are “War is the continuation of policy (politics) by other means.” and “It is clear that war is not a mere act of policy but a true political instrument, a continuation of political activity by other means”.
